From b1483189811c6980945731f54837c765d61ea5d0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jim Meyering Date: Mon, 14 Dec 2009 12:05:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] node_device_driver.c: don't write beyond EOB for 4K-byte symlink * src/node_device/node_device_driver.c (update_driver_name): The previous code would write one byte beyond the end of the 4KiB stack buffer when presented with a symlink value of exactly that length (very unlikely). Remove the automatic buffer and use virFileResolveLink in place of readlink.
